LOCATION:The Man in the Sea Museum, 17314 Panama City Beach Pkwy, Panama City Beach,
  FL, 32413
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:The Man in the Sea Museum is excited to announce two new exhibits exploring
  how skilled divers are helping to restore habitats in the mesophotic, or “
 twilight,” zones of the ocean. The Museum will host a celebration of the ex
 hibit on Friday, April 4, 2025 from 12:00 - 3:00pm, which is free and open 
 to the public. Join us for educational games, giveaways, and opportunities 
 to engage with restoration experts, NEDU divers, and museum staff. Be one o
 f the first to experience the exhibit and enjoy activities for ocean lovers
  of all ages!\n\nOne new exhibit highlights the mesophotic and deep benthic
  communities that live in the Gulf of America (formerly the Gulf of Mexico)
 , which include fish, corals, and other invertebrates, and how dedicated te
 ams are working to restore them after the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill
 . The second new exhibit showcases how highly-trained divers from the Navy 
 Experimental Diving Unit (NEDU), located right in Panama City, contribute t
 o this restoration and other challenging work beyond the reach of recreatio
 nal scuba divers.\nThese exhibits were made possible through a grant from t
 he National Marine Sanctuary Foundation, with funding to restore natural re
 sources injured by the 2010 oil spill from the DWH Open Ocean Trustees. The
  new exhibits showcase ongoing restoration efforts by the Mesophotic and De
 ep Benthic Communities projects and the dedication and skills of the NEDU.\
 n\nFeatures in this new exhibit include:\n• Stunning photos of mesophotic c
 orals, deep-sea diving gear in action, and divers conducting restoration ef
 forts on the seafloor\n• A video of restoration work by the Saturation Deta
 chment of NEDU.\n• An interactive kiosk that allows guests to identify spec
 ies along the seafloor and learn about deep-sea habitats and technology.\n•
